STELLENBOSCH, South Africa,
Aug. 2, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- MiX
Telematics (JSE: MIX, NYSE: MIXT) a leading
global provider of fleet and mobile asset management solutions
delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), is proud to announce
that it has been certified to the ISO/IEC 27001 international
standard for information security management. This demonstrates MiX
Telematics' strong commitment to protecting the confidentiality,
integrity and availability of the information gathered, processed
and provided to its customers.
The certification provides stakeholders with the assurance that
MiX Telematics has robust methods and processes in place to
identify and mitigate risks relating to information systems
management and security. Furthermore, the credibility of the
ISO/IEC 27001 certification is enhanced through the use of BSI
(British Standards Institution) as the certification body – a
globally respected organisation.
The scope of the certification includes the development,
provision, management and support of mobile asset information,
products and services that are delivered via MiX's SaaS
platform.
In addition to the ISO 27001 certification, MiX Telematics is
also certified for ISO 9001:2015 (the international standard for
quality management systems) which the company has maintained since
first achieving it in 2003.
"We are incredibly proud of this achievement which took a lot of
effort across multiple teams," comments Catherine Lewis, Executive Vice President of
Technology at MiX Telematics. "While some telematics
companies leverage the certification of their cloud providers, few
– if any – have achieved both ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications
for their own development and operations environments. We believe
this places us in a fairly unique position in the industry,"
concludes Lewis.
